Based on the instruction you will need 2 fuses, one in the footwell and one in the "fuse holder A (front end) (see page 16)". We still haven't located that fuse box, so if you do find it, please share it here! Or share any photos you can take during installation.

The instructions seem to imply that the 5amp fuse is for the Porsche rear camera, so that fusebox is in the trunk area. If you have a dashcam that uses the coax for power to the rear camera, you don't need that rear fuse.

I may be wrong on this point though.

Damn, I assumed the pre-wiring meant no need to fuse tap

Prewired means you do not need to fuse tap BUT you do need to add 2 fuses based on the instructions from porsche. The fuses are left empty to disconnect the prewiring from the rest of the car.
